    Let's start with the positives: the location is very nice: a terrace as close to the sea as…read morepossible without getting in the water. The food was good but not excellent: for example, in the tuna tartare the flavor of the capers overwhelmed that of the tuna itself instead of enhancing it. Similarly, the "spaghetti al riccio" were good but not memorable. The very extensive wine list was surprisingly lacking of a local wines: more french wines and champagnes than wines from Isola d'Elba or even Tuscany. Anyway, personally I like tasting "farm-to-fork" or local foods whenever possible. However, that's a choice of the owner ... I guess they feel differently. One minor flaw that turned me off is when I asked for a local "amaro" to finish my dinner, the waiter stated "we don't have any local amaros: they are too commercial". This rubbed me the wrong way, there's no reason to put others down and also I tasted some perfectly nice amaros "of the house" in other restaurants. Overall, the location was nice although not easy to reach due to the super narrow road to get there, the food was good but not "to die for", the price way steeper than other restaurants on the island (with better food), and the service was attentive but a little too pretentious. I doubt that I'll go back

In this enchanting and au- thentic location there is only one restau- rant, L'Ostrica. Since 1953 the Mortula family has been continuously managing this pearl of El- ba's restaurant industry. And every cor- ner of the restaurant tells a piece of this family's story. The terrace overlooking the sea, where Sauro welcomed the rst cu- stomers in the fties, the indoor hall whi- ch is now an art gallery, where Luciano exhibits his photography work. Nothing is left to chance. The menu, mainly consisting of sh, is prepared day by day with high quality ingredients, always fresh and local. Dishes where the taste blends in with tradition and a wine list with over 250 labels. All in a very spe- cial place, with attention to every detail. This year L'Ostrica celebrates two anni- versaries: the 65th anniversary of the ope- ning and 20 years of Luciano's manage- ment,

Matteo was humble, funny and informative; sharing tips on how we could recreate the dishes he created for us. Our starter was a savory pumpkin flan. Chef Matteo made fresh pici pasta with a spectacular garlic and green tomato sauce topped with hot pepper (capsicum) strands. I've made my own pasta before, so I know it is not as easy as he made it seem, but it has inspired me to try again, because fresh pasta cannot be beat! The restaurant is intimate, and the inside is absolutely gorgeous. The teal color walls against the exposed stone is eye catching. If you can, grab a seat by the functioning well; the running water is so soothing as you dine (or it might make you want to use the toilet a lot!)

Mateo really took the time to explain how to cook specialty items, and the importance of knowing your ingredients and knowing your equipment. He also detailed how "where" you live can cause a need for adjustments in cooking temps & times. I am so grateful for his motto of "no secrets in the kitchen". For him, it is all about sharing and collaboration. We started with popcorn sprinkled w/ paprika. I have never had it like that before and it was so light and tasty. The 2nd course was a pumpkin flan. He taught us the rule of balancing - 4. 1) 2oz eggs, 2) 2oz kitchen cream(or heavy cream), 3) 2oz milk and 4) 2oz pumpkin (or fig or veg, etc.). It was SO GOOD. Topped with sweet peppers shaved like saffron, a pistachio crema, & pistachio pieces. Little dallops of basil & pistachio gelee circled the little flan disc as pops of brightly flavored bursts. OMG!! Delectable! Paired with a rich Sangeovese, it was amazing!! Then we moved on to the 3rd course. Pici pasta. The pasta was superb! Fresh, fresh, fresh! with a home made green tomatoe and elephant ear garlic sauce. A deep "Super Tuskan" red to accompany was perfection. For dessert we had Cantucci and Vinsanto. What a lovely night!

This was…read moreour first stop after flying into Rome and taking a little siesta in our Airbnb - we walked here and grabbed some slices (anchovy, mushroom, and various cheese). I just pointed to the slices I wanted, they were quickly warmed up, and the prices were very reasonable. We walked to the nearby fountain to eat them outside and had a nice first evening in Rome thanks to Yelp bringing us to this place and the wonderful people who run it. It's not really an indoor eating establishment, there are a few tables, but it's more of a quick-stop grab and go sort of place with excellent pies. Recommended!

Not busy but steady traffic around 9:45 on a Tuesday evening. A good amount of Roman square pizza options. We got a slice of just about everything that was available. Potato/sausage (stood out as we hadn't had this before), Zucchini Pesto was delicious, Ham and classic Margherita also didn't disappoint. Crust was light/airy and made for the perfect balance between crust and toppings. Beer and soft drinks were also available. Service was quick and friendly. If in the Monti district, make this stop for reasonably priced traditional pizza al trancio.
